In England, testacy concerns matters when someone dies leaving a valid will. A solicitor helps executors to identify assets, collect them, settle debts and taxes, and distribute the estate to beneficiaries in line with the will. They prepare and file documents with the Probate Registry, arrange the grant of probate, liaise with banks, insurers and landowners, and advise on Inheritance Tax and any trusts or residuals that arise within the estate.
The grant of probate and the administration of the estate determine which assets pass, how debts are paid, and how beneficiaries receive their share. The solicitor’s role includes regulatory accountability, handling probate documentation, and advising on tax exposure and potential claims against the estate.

Tagged solicitor Acton Afonso
I want to thank Acton Afonso for his thoroughness and speed in handling my uncle’s case. We needed a will properly drafted and signed asap and Acton was prompt to execute everything we needed. He made himself very available to liaise with during a very stressful time. His communications were prompt. And my uncle was extremely pleased with his service when he met him. My uncle can be very particular, so the fact he was very happy with Acton’s conduct is a testament to his work ethic. 5/5 stars for positive manner, knowledge, speed and very clear communication. If the company offers any bonuses for their solicitors I’m personally asking that they give him the upper tier of whatever bonuses are available. I do customer service work so I know when someone is doing their role and when they are going above and beyond. Acton has gone above and beyond and I imagine that I will be requesting his services in the near future.

Blacks Solicitors were really great in assisting me to sell my late sister’s bungalow. Amy was very helpful and professional, happy to explain parts of the contracts I was unfamiliar with and the sale went through smoothly. I would recommend.
